Untouched Vibes & Island Time

#summervacay Koh Yao Yai is that low-key island you dream about when the beach crowds get too loud. It’s bigger and a bit more rugged than its chill neighbor, Koh Yao Noi, but still totally peaceful and unbothered by mass tourism. Think quiet beaches, local villages, and roads that beg for a scooter ride. The beaches? Soft sand, clear water, and barely a soul in sight. Loh Pared and Ao Muong are stunners, and you’ll probably have them all to yourself. The sunsets here are next level, like, postcard-perfect with fiery skies and those classic limestone cliffs just vibing in the distance. There’s not a ton to “do,” and that’s exactly the point. Maybe a beach picnic, a kayak ride, or a nap under a palm tree. The locals are sweet, the food is fresh and simple, and time slows way down. Koh Yao Yai isn’t flashy, it’s just real, raw island magic. Come here to unplug, explore, and totally exhale. This is Thailand in slow motion, and it’s perfect.
